If keeping a warranty in place, a license plate on the truck, and trading the deleted truck back in at the dealer are not issues, delete.

take the cooler off and clean it yourself for free.

Unless warranty is paying.

If deleting is your choice, you can do it for far less than $2,600. Check out Rudy's (among others).

Don't worry about the license plate comment if you're not in an emission-controlled state. For a good time call Jeremy@NoLimit..

Uhh...somebody is majorly putting it to you on the price of the cooler. I looked it up, it appears to be had for as little as $290.

The EGR valve does not need to be cleaned on this motor.

The issue is the cooler. It will get clogged from the soot if you don't work the motor hard some.

Both are located on top of the valve cover, passenger side.

I'm having a hard time figuring out where you're from, but if it's British Columbia and you're interested, I have the one off my '13. Disabled at 700km when I deleted and finally removed at 1300km.

Personally, I'd delete though!
